Improved Essays
The geography of my future career was the most surprising petal to identify with, as I have never even considered living anywhere but Mesa, Arizona. Having so much I am unhappy with here, I’ve always figured a new job, a better job would make me happy. How would that change the miserable summers of extreme heat that I loathe so much? My love for Colorado is immense, and after reading this book and creating this petal I have concluded that Boulder, Colorado will fill my geography petal. Their annual Bolder Boulder 10k is my only motivation to keep up with my running, and the thought of race day when the whole town shows up with an immeasurable amount of energy to cheer you on, is what keeps me going every evening as I’m finishing my runs with all that I have.

I know this is not realistic, but a girl can dream. I do love a well-organized desk with all my books and all my notes and being able to just sit down and research and learn everything my heart is thriving to learn about.

I want to be a part of an ever growing and encouraging team of success-driven and people loving souls. My salary petal was difficult to calculate. I want to live comfortably, but not in luxury. I want to be successful, only if that means I can teach and help people. If that is not an option I will cut back, but I will not let money take away my dream. I will need at least 70,000 a year to survive, save an adequate amount for my future family and retirement. I will strive for greater opportunities and a better life for myself at all times, but keeping in mind my true passion and my true values.

    For the majority of my professional life I worked primarily in the private sector; consequently, I have very minimal professional experience in the public sector. While rummaging through various documents, searching for material required for the completion of this analysis, I recognized that there are overlapping and recurring themes which clearly point to who I am as a professional and, thus, the direction in which my professional life should proceed, public service.

    Growing up, I lived in quite a few places as a result of my parents’ divorce. The neighborhood I lived most of my life, and still live in, is in New Market, Maryland. I live with my father on a tranquil golf course surrounded by large evergreens, close to a large lake known as Lake Linganore. I have always loved living here, especially when the wind would pick up and breeze through the trees and the crisp blades of the manicured grass. My favorite activity is to walk with my dog along the golfing path, and observe the scenery of the landscape with the forested mountains along the horizon.…
